Cleo Gin

Cleo Gin is a "modern gin" produced by Black Market Spirits. It is distilled in a 150-gallon copper pot still and bottled in Santa Barbara, California at 92 proof (46% ABV).

The gin is named after Cleo Lythgoe, a notorious swashbuckler legendary for supplying bootlegged liquor during Prohibition. The brand celebrates her "passion and prowess," aiming for a gin with a distinctive personality.

Key Features:

• Modern Gin: Suggesting a less traditional botanical profile compared to a London Dry Gin.
• Small Batch Maceration: The botanicals are macerated in small batches to extract their flavors.
• 13 Botanicals: A blend of thirteen different botanicals contributes to its complex flavor.
• Rose Gold Bottle: The bottle has a distinctive rose gold coating.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Features a full and balanced floral juniper aroma with light chamomile and hints of berry and mint.
• Palate: Described as bright, full-bodied, and robust with predominant and complex citrus (specifically blood orange) and juniper notes, followed by mild berry and herbal notes. There's also a touch of sweetness.
• Finish: Soft and clean with a drawn-out refreshing spearmint finish.

Botanicals:

While the full list of 13 botanicals isn't always explicitly stated, key notes provided by the distiller include:

• Juniper (predominant)
• Blood Orange Citrus
• Chamomile
• Hyssop (herbal)
• Meadowsweet (herbal)
• Spearmint

Overall Impression: Cleo Gin appears to be a contemporary-style gin that balances traditional juniper with a noticeable citrus and herbal character, rounded out by a hint of sweetness and a refreshing minty finish. It's positioned as a well-balanced and flavorful gin suitable for various cocktails.

Where to Buy:Cleo Gin can be found at various retailers and online platforms such as Mash&Grape, Total Wine & More (availability may vary), Hi-Time Wine Cellars, and Mission Wine & Spirits.

If you're looking for a gin that offers a modern twist with prominent citrus and herbal notes alongside juniper, Cleo Gin might be worth trying.
